when does carbon dioxide absorb the most heat energy?
○ during freezing
○ during deposition
○ during sublimation
○ during condensation

Explanation:

Sublimation is the phase change of a substance directly from a solid state to a gaseous state. This process requires a large input of heat energy to break the strong intermolecular forces holding the solid structure together, far more than the exothermic (heat-releasing) processes of freezing, deposition, and condensation, which all release heat rather than absorb it.

Answer:

during sublimation
